DUNCAN ACTIVE: (http://blogs.mysanantonio.com/weblogs/spursworld/2009/03/spurs-vs-boston-celtics-game-c.html)

Among the players who have been sidelined recently are the Spurs' Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili and the Celtics' Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen. Duncan is active tonight and Ginobili is inactive. Garnett and Allen were listed as game-time decisions but are both on tonight's active list and available to play.

Wow Duncan really gets screwed by the statisticians. Hes had 3 blocks that i have clearly seen, yet he has 1 on yahoo.com.

yeah hes been robbed of countless blocks. missed out on tons of triple doubles (and maybe that one quadruple) cause hes always getting shortchanged on blocks, probably cause he doesnt make a scene when he does it.

Hes 5 for 11. Perkins has played him really well, although Duncan has been a little lazy and hasnt decided to exert himself by using any post moves and banging.

Just a fake and jumper or a drive and hook shot. Normally when he drives to the middle and the defender beats him to his spot he goes to his counter, either a fake, up and under, or a spin. Instead tonight, he just forces up an ugly hook over the long defender which goes in about 0.1% of the time.

If it weren't for the turnovers we could have been even further ahead.

That said, we got what we got in the Houston game in this first half...yet another glimpse of Spurs basketball in it's purest form. Everyone played good defense and the second unit looked really good. Parker and Duncan were Parker and Duncan...and the overall energy level was playoff-esque.

it's times like these where Manu is so missed..we don't have an offensive spark in the backcourt when Mason and/or Finley are missing..when Manu is here, at least he can come in and spark us offensively..

it'll be tough to win here if one of those guys or Hill doesn't step up offensively..
